Question

Write down the example of converting the two numbers to the same exponent:

We conclude that the _____ atom is the greater.

Answer 1

2'nd atom

Explanation:

There are two atoms one weighs

6.022*10^-29 grams

another weighs

1.66*10^-17 grams

Which atom has a greater mass?

Work:

-29-(-17)=-12

-29 is 12 decimal places smaller than ^-17

0.000000000006.022*10^-17=1.66*10^-17

0.000000000006.022=1.66

0.000000000006.022<1.66

atom 1 < atom 2

We can conclude that the second atom is the greater.
